The #1 thriller on Netflix today is a 2007 thriller that flew under most of our radars. It’s an action-packed film with one of the most random casts we could ever dream up. Our new number-one movie is The Kingdom.

Synopsis

“After a terrorist attack on an American housing compound in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where families and FBI Agent Francis Manner are murdered, FBI agent Ronald Fleury blackmails the Saudi Arabian consul to get five days of investigation in the location. He travels with agent Grant Sykes, Janet Mayes, and Adam Leavitt to avenge their friend and try to find those responsible for the bombing. The agents find all sorts of difficulties in their investigation, but they are supported by Colonel Faris Al Ghazi that advises the team on how to act in a hostile environment.”

I can see why in 2007, The Kingdom with Jamie Foxx didn’t do well. Ages great tho. Pretty much a high end Netflix movie.

Revisiting some Jamie Foxx action stuff before his latest, and the final half hour of Berg’s The Kingdom goes so hard. The rest is a restrained War on Terror time capsule as FBI procedural, until that final act explodes into Modern-Warfare-2-AF badasses-on-a-mission mayhem pic.twitter.com/uzSPyA159F
